Li Xiang talked with Li Chengqian for a while and originally wanted to stay for dinner, but Li Chengqian might not be able to keep up with the spirit, so he fell into a deep sleep again. Li Xiang could only go to the back to eat with his mother.
Unlike the situation in the Imperial Palace and the General Tiance's Mansion, it can be said that it is very quiet on my mother's side. Although Li Chengqian also has many concubines, Li Chengqian has health problems, and these people stay in their own rooms honestly, and dare not go out to cause trouble. After all, if they cause trouble at this time, they may lose their lives. In addition, Li Xiang has also returned, and these people also know what to do. If they really get in the way of Li Xiang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows nothing at the moment, and Li Xiang can take your lives at any time.
"It's strange. When I was restless, I was dreaming of a few good days. But now I have a good life, but this good life was bought by your father with his body. I really don't know whether I should be happy or sad. If I had to choose, I would rather your father called in a few concubines every now and then. Maybe they were all naughty, but at least it would only make things uncomfortable for a while. But look at you now, the whole East Palace is lifeless."
There was no smile on his mother's face. Li Xiang knew his mother very well. His father was almost his mother's sky. If Li Chengqian really left, his mother might not be able to hold on for long. At this moment, Li Xiang thought of his son Li Liang.
If Li Liang could be sent here to be raised by his mother, although it would not cure his father's illness, it would at least give his mother another emotional support. Having her own grandson grow up by her side, even if she feels sad, she will still have a concern. As long as she has this concern, she will have a new spiritual sustenance, and in the future, she will never end her life lightly.
"Mother, please stop saying these things. There are many reasons for Father's health. The elixirs he took in his early years, coupled with the fall from a horse in his youth, have caused his body to be slightly weaker than that of an average person. But this is not a big problem. As long as Father can take good care of himself, he will be able to recover. During this period, your son will be in the capital and will come to visit more often. However, there is something I want to trouble you with, mother."
Originally, there was no hope on Liu's face, but when she heard her son's words, she immediately became serious. The court was far from calm now. With Li Chengqian's illness, many people had begun to make trouble. There must be something going on on her son's side. As a wife of the house, she might not be able to help with those military and national affairs, but if it was her son's request, she had to do this for her son even if it meant sacrificing her reputation.
"If you have something to say, just say it directly. You came out of my belly. Do we need to be so formal with each other?"
The mother touched Li Xiang's head. If it wasn't in her own room, this action would not be allowed. There are so many rules in the palace.
"Li Liang, as you can see, is already three years old. He's been raised outside the palace and doesn't know many of the rules. I'm also busy with state affairs every day. If I really leave him to the women in my house, I wouldn't feel safe. What if someone harbors bad intentions? Wouldn't that be a disaster for the child? So I want to leave him with my mother and let her raise him for a while. He's in the enlightenment stage, which is also the most important stage in life."
Li Xiang spoke sincerely, and his mother also thought of the fat grandson just now. Children over three years old are at the age of being lovable. His mother also thought of the child's biological mother, Changsun Pingting, who always talked about abacus beads. What kind of person would she raise her grandson to be?
"I was just about to tell you about this. The eldest daughter of the Changsun family is indeed smart, but she deals with money every day. My grandson can't be like those people. Send someone to deliver the things today. I will clean them up in the yard next to me. This kid will follow me from now on."
In fact, when playing with her grandson today, his mother Liu was already a little dissatisfied. Changsun Pingting spent most of her time on Li Xiang's Great Wall and provided Li Xiang with a lot of money, but there were some problems in the upbringing of her son. It happened that there was nothing going on in the Eastern Palace, and it was separated from Li Chengqian, so the disease would not spread.
"Thank you so much, mother. But this boy is a little naughty. If you find out, mother, don't protect him. Beat him when he deserves to be beaten and scold him when he deserves to be scolded. Otherwise, he won't be able to become anything in the future. The capital is short of capable children, but it has never lacked those dandies. Mother can't give in to him in everything."
Hearing what Li Xiang said, Liu's face turned a little ugly. After all, he was her grandson. With a grandson, her son had to take a back seat, especially Li Liang, whose appearance was almost the same as Li Xiang's. The two had to share the same face. Whenever Liu saw Li Liang, it was as if she saw Li Xiang when he was a child, and she would hold him in her arms and not let go.
"Look at what you're saying. When you were Liang'er's age, did I ask so much of you? If I were as you say, your bottom would have been beaten to pieces when you were a kid."
Hearing his mother talking about her embarrassing things, Li Xiang's face looked a little unhappy. Liu didn't continue talking. After all, Li Xiang was now the third most important person in the Tang Dynasty, and it was difficult for the mother and son to have such a heart-to-heart talk. The meal lasted for nearly an hour.
Before leaving, Li Xiang went to check on Li Chengqian, who had just woken up and taken the medicine. Taiyi also came to see him. Naturally, these people did not dare to disobey Li Xiang's suggestion of ventilation, but they still felt that it was unnecessary. However, seeing that Li Chengqian's complexion was much better than before, these people secretly wrote down this method. Maybe this would be a very useful method.
In the eyes of people from all walks of life, Li Xiang is not a simple person. If you think he is a simple person, then you have really misjudged him. Li Xiang has many abilities, not just in fighting and doing business. If you can learn all these abilities, it will have a profound impact on your half-life. This is his ability.
"Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei has sent an invitation, inviting you to drink at the Prince of Wei's mansion tonight."
Li Xiang received the invitation as soon as he came out of the East Palace.
